The command "tldr -p linux sync" is used to display a simplified explanation or summary of the Linux command "sync" using the "tldr" utility.
The "sync" command in Linux is used to flush filesystem buffers and synchronize data on disk with memory. It ensures that all pending changes to disk files are written and prevents data corruption in case of power outages or system crashes.
When you use the "tldr" utility along with the "-p" flag and specify "linux sync," it fetches and displays a simplified summary of the "sync" command from its built-in repository of simplified, community-driven command explanations. It provides a concise and easy-to-understand explanation of how to use the "sync" command and its purpose in Linux.
